“Adelphi University is already a leader in the field of energy conservation and recycling. From the solar panels on the roof of Swirbul Library, to our beautiful organic gardens, to our use of cogeneration to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, we are a model of clean energy.

It was a natural fit, therefore, for me to sign the “We Are Still In”

letter and add Adelphi University to the long list of universities that promise to uphold the spirit and the intent of the Paris Agreement.”
